Distributed Fiber Optic Sensors are used for monitoring real time temperature, pressure, strain and stress along the fiber length. These high-resolution sensors can withstand extreme conditions and require little or no power making them suitable for installation in harsh environments and remote locations.
Multiple sensors measuring different parameters can be connected together on the same fiber. A network of sensors spanning large areas require optical amplifiers that can amplify weak signals with a low noise figure and high gain.
MPBC low noise preamplifiers can operate with input signals down to -50dBm. They are compact and can be stacked together for multiple input lines.
